Almost 8) , ` , "Le surrealisme a la disposition de la revolution!" The signs over the e and a are accents... Service could also be used. But in any case, both ways are not what someone would use in french (i suppose this is from english...). Some ways that would be used in Quebec (and probably in most francophone countries): "Le surrealisme pour servir la revolution!" or shorter (and better): "Le surrealisme pour la revolution!". Also "La revolution par le surrealisme!" which is just an inversion of the subject and the "complement d'objet direct".

A good example of what I am looking for is a camcorder view- finder. Someone posted some info about Matsushita 0.7" displays from camcorders about a month ago to sci.virtual-worlds, but didn't include any info about where to obtain them. These are just what I am looking for. If anyone has any information, please respond in any way possible. Thank you in advance. __________ Tom Nawara U54876@uicvm.uic.edu 708.447.5116 ______________________________ From: Steven J.

It's this little portable gizmo with eyegear and headphones and it's supposed to "coax" your brain into theta waves. It claims to give you visual experiences, help you learn languages faster, and offers stuff like mind improvement, etc. the company's name is Zygon.
